Hello Cameron, thanks for your answer.
Maybe we could check conf.py for changes too and define a rule for commit messages like - "version mapbender3 changed, final 8.5" If something in the text of the overview files changes it still means that the translators must have a look and translate. I like your idea to loop through all translations and updates the version number to the English master version.
